Now the teachers can share books, AV equipment, and materials without much moving,” said English Department Chairman Mrs. Joyce Parker. In spite of all these changes, everyone quickly settled into the real business at hand; going to classes, joining sports teams and clubs, and socializ- ing with riends. It didn’t matter hat the u i 1 d i n g ooked like, t was what happened he inside hat count- After four years of persistance, Scott McQuigg was finally granted permission to meet with President Reagan. Congressman Mike Bilira- kis arranged the meeting. ed. People were them- selves individuals. “A lot of people don’t al- ways agree with me, but I do what I want to do, not what everyone else is doing, and thinks I should do also,” stated Rima Nassar. Many unique things happened to people. For example, Scott McQuigg had a chance to meet with President Ronald Reagan, after waiting for many years.

Many people enjoyed going to Clear- water Beach at night as well as during the day. This allowed time to just relax and socialize with friends, playing video games, listening to the band at the Surf- side, or just sitting in one of the parking lots listening to the radio. Another activity which took up a lot of many students’ free time was jobs. With gas being over $1.00 a gal- lon, a movie costing $4.00, and a Whopper at Burger King costing $1.57, many students needed jobs for extra spending money for their free time. While some students could be found at just about every concert that came into the Bay Area, others were inter- ested in different activi- ties. Students who en- joyed boating or other water sports could be found at the Kahula Cup Competition. Homecoming week. October 21-25, also pro- vided students with ac- tivities. These included Tornado Tales on Thurs- day night, during which the Homecoming Queen, Michelle Da- Mattia, was announced. During Tornado Tales, professional comedian, Sinbad, also performed as a special guest. Fri- day night was the foot- ball game, which was followed by a video dance. These activities gave students things to do during their free time and helped them be- come part of CHS on the inside. V Student Life Division 7
